“What being chosen feels like I’ve given my heart away, But I’ve never known, What it feels like to be kept. I’ve stood on the edges of hearts, But never at the center. I don’t know, What it would be like, To be the one they run to, I don’t know how to be someone’s home. What it would be like, To be someone’s first thought, To feel their certainty, the certainty of being wanted, To know without question that you are the one they choose. I don’t know how to be someone’s permanent. I know how to love deeply, But I don’t know how it feels, To be the one loved back in the same way. I know how to give love, But not how it feels, To be the one it stays with. I’ve seen love bloom for others, But I’ve never felt its roots grow for me. I’ve been almost, nearly, and close enough, But never the reason they stay for. I wonder if love feels different, When it’s meant for you, And not just passing through. I only know the cold of waiting, Unsure if the warmth of being truly chosen, Is something I’ll ever know.”

“There’s a reason for everything. It is not that you are asking too much, but maybe this isn’t the moment. Maybe this period is set aside for you to recognize the potential to fight your battles alone. To teach you to believe in yourself. To instill confidence in you. Be patient. Keep your faith in the universe’s ability to provide you with what you’ve asked for.”

“I want you to take me the way the night takes the day—slowly, inevitably, until nothing remains. The way the tide aches for the shore—pulling, reaching, desperate to belong. I want you. Everywhere. You, beneath me, above me, around me, within me. I want to lose myself in you, to forget where I end and you begin. I want you to unmake me, to strip me down to nothing but love, nothing but you. I want your love to know no other home but mine. —I won’t be convinced by anything but your presence.”

“When I first met you, it felt as if we had already met somewhere in the skies. A part of me always knew you. I don't know how it happened, but you just made me feel something deep within. All I know is that you came into my life when I was not even looking for you. You touched some chord in my heart that no one else in the world could ever touch before. All I know is that something right happened to me because of you.”

“Take me back to the time when pain was unknown to me and my heart didn’t learn to ache. When I thought, no matter where life took us, the thing between us would never change. When I used to believe in the concept of forever and assumed that all would be the same. When I used to believe in you. Take me back to those times where we didn’t have to pretend to be strangers. Where we weren’t you and me. Where we used to be us.”
